    • rest can be used during match
    • shovels allowed when building defences, not allowed during match
    • building blocks are provided by the arena master, no other blocks are allowed
  • players start on their side of the arena, but they can cross to the other side when they see the signal
  • unforged sapphire bombs only
  • no augments
  • no double fisting
  • no food/ brew buffs (with the exception of persisting food, teaching food, reviver brew, strength brew (for when the player doesn’t have enough skills to destroy blocks (with bomb) in 1 hit (otherwise useless) )
  • floating pies are allowed IN THE SMALL ARENA (3x3) ONLY (possibly FFA, so bring some just in case)
  • no healing (brew / bomb) during match

1st, 2nd, 3rd place (teams), last one standing (FFA) will get prizes

  • prizes are TBA, also looking for sponsors :slight_smile:

a single round takes much longer than is usual for DB, so there won’t be ‘best of 3’, only 1 match. so watch your step :wink:

signals, lights

RED: attention, match is about to start

GREEN: GO!

DEFENCE BUILDING TIMER: 2 minutes, each light = 30s, when all 4 are on, stop building, get ready

CROSS OVER: when arrow lights are on, players are allowed to cross the center line (this won’t be announced by chat, so look out for the lights)

READY SIGNAL: player stands on the step, opens trapdoor above = player is ready, paying attention and waiting for ‘‘GO!’’ signal (trapdoors are autodoored)

*cross over light and lava traps (yes, we have lava traps) are delayed 30- ish seconds to prevent favouritism

I was thinking of offering to DJ for the event, but I just realized I will be busy at that time. If you want I could pre-record a mix for however long you want. I usually do Electronic music (Techno, House, Progressive, Trance, some EDM, etc.), but I’m open to whatever.

at this point it is uncertain if there will even be an event, as we have 3 confirmed players, if I personally join the shenanigans, we are looking at a a couple of friendly matches maybe

Oh ok, well I hope more players join

Did @Apt request music?

Ill see if I can find more teams.

I’d like to make it too! It looks like a good time and I think I’m off work during it. If anyone needs a teammate, I’d be happy to be a stand-in.
